The Sydney Jazz Club holds live jazz functions on the last Wednesday of most months, there are exceptions such as December. The event is held in a venue where there is a dance floor, dining and bar facilities. Currently this is Club Ashfield, in Charlotte Street, Ashfield located very near the Ashfield Railway Station - there is dedicated parking close by.
The bands comprise leading local and interstate jazz musicians and occasionally overseas musicians playing traditional and mainstream jazz. The Club aims to present different bands each month and occasionally will feature a theme for the evening to mark a prominent event such as the 100th anniversary of Bix Beiderbeck's birth, a musical genius, who by age 3 could hear a tune once and then play it on the piano, and sadly, died at the age of 29.
